Don't know if this is the correct section?

I'm having trouble with Wordpress at the moment. For some reason every time I hit enter in the page editor it's giving me double spaces.

Any ideas?

    It does that if you hit enter. Just keep typing, when the line is full it will do a single line return and continue on next line. Only use enter if you want to start a new paragraph or double space your content.

    Craig,

    You beat me to it! Shift-Return (aka a "soft" return) is the way to go..

    By default, WP treats each "hard" return as a <p>aragraph tag.

    A nuisance, I know.

    Cheers,
    Steve

    Thanks for that. Honestly you have no idea how much trouble you've saved me. This has been stressing me out all day.
